How do I turn an image or text into a link?

Hi............,
How do I turn an image or text into a link?

 

[PVT-Jordan]

in HTML, just wrap whatever it is with an <a> tag. For example:

<a href="location.html">This is my link</a>

The href defines the location.

hey if you need to know anything more just go to w3schools.com, its a great source for html information, a lot of designers would be lost without it

And dont forget to take the border out since it will be linked

<a href="http://link.com"><img src="img.jpg" [B]border="0"[/B]></a>

Depending on your doctype target may not be valid

yea, that references works well

 

[kashirakaze]

Yeah pretty simple really. Don't forget to use border and alt codes on the image too.

 

[akki.webmaster]

Use tools to do it if you cannot remember the coding. Tools like dreamweaver should help.

re

to create link use <a href=""></a> tag for text and alt key word for image

Have a look at http://www.opera.com/company/education/curriculum if you're into web standards and plan on offering coding services professionally. For links, see this specific page: http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/18-html-links-let-s-build-a-web/

And border="0" should be specified in the CSS, not the markup.

I have used both tizag.com and w3schools.com. I like w3schools.com better, but that's just my opinion. I tend to forget a lot of this stuff since I don't do it often. Those sites are a big help!

w3schools.com is really the best and its very simple to a newbie.

It's a great site can be a little overwhelming to someone very new to html but definitely a bookmark in my inventory.
